Dear BV,

Gasping for breath knowing the depth of pain this poem means for me. The agony of a past tense love...too much to bear. Powerful piece. H🌷

Ty for reading and those emotions felt, my lovely lady. I hope it wasn't too, too much to bear. It's these little ones that I find extremely powerful, too. I have much much respect for those that can wield a senryú or haiku and wallop with it. It's still a work in progress for me to find my way there (I feel)  so your words and list add are so very appreciative 🙏
Truly.
Much love and respect,
🌹 💜 🌹

Sad poem of the heartache of friendship.  We lose touch with friends and we are on different paths in life.  Keep on writing.

You are so very correct, Francisco.
Ty for being so observant and leaving your thoughts

Beautiful, sad, you really are a clever poetess my sweet
Love and light

Crisp ... sharp ... poignant ... the essence of brevity poetry ... like a stab ...

Thank you so much, LilD!
it's so awesome that I was able to convey that "stab"... Ty for your comments, the list add and all your kindness
I very much appreciate it!
Much love,

You seem to be living in the did rather than the do at the moment but we love you for it. Sometimes an artist or a human being even, lol, needs to exhaust every avenue of these feelings. You're bound to reflect & sometimes all it takes is Henry Rollins for you to say, oh shit, I'm still f*cked up, in a way. ;-)

Ty for reading and your thoughtful remarks, my lovely friend... this was just and idea that popped into my head for a competition, because of a Henry Rollins quote.... lol... luckily my friendships are intact and long standing! Whew! ;)

I actually really loved your mindset about exhausting particular feelings ...it made sense!
I always love seeing you, Billy
and I appreciate you taking the time
Much love and respect,

ethan,  
I'm grateful for the list and your thoughtful remarks. I am a huge Rollins fan, for a really long time now. I am such a nerd and have met him so many times, the last few , he actually remembered me and we talked about a particular tour he did in the 90's where I saw him perform in 7 or 8 different cities... and his once upon a time, severe dislike of Tampa... lol... it was so classic (and I still freak out, thinking about it!) hahaha 😂  

I am glad my write resonated. I constantly work on my senryú /haiku skills. I enjoy them so much, they enthrall me and are super challenging for me to construct... so, I'm thankful beyond measure for your thoughtful feedback

Powerful and deep with a great play on word.
Outstanding work.

Ty for reading and the generous list add, Walter :)
I do love the senryú so much and I am so appreciative of your visits

"when know, is now knew" is a heartbreaking passage and reality🙏🌹

Agreed BB
Thank you so much for showing me all this kindness
I'm so very grateful
